Well here we are in 2010. January has flown by!!! I cannot believe it is almost February. We have been busy yet not so busy this past month. Busy doing things around the house, but not so much getting out activities. Partly due to the fact that Georgia, Doug and I were all sick for the first part of January. I started out with it Christmas Eve and never truly got over it until 3 weeks later! During that time Georgia & Doug both came down with with the same thing. Not fun!!
I would also like to announce I would say Georgia is potty trained!!!!! YAY!!!! She has known what to do for a long time and I think it was mainly me not just "going for it" She has been in pull ups for awhile and would ask to go potty while we were out and about, but wouldn't do it so much at home. Recently she has found a new love in Snow White. It was a gift from Memaw for Christmas and is pretty much on repeat around here from 7am-8pm. Moving on...I found a package of princess panties at the store...BINGO!!! The pack of 6 had 1 pair of Snow White panties in it. She woke up on Monday and I told her I had a present for her. She LOVED them wore them all day long and was so excited. The rest is history- except for the fact I ripped open her Valentine's Day gift early- Sleeping Beauty. (You can only take so much of Snow White....) We watched it together and double bonus- we can now rotate movies and she will wear 3 out of the 6 panties now instead of just 1!
I hate to keep going on about this, but it really is so exciting for me! So far we have gone to the store twice on normal length trips and NO accidents! Also tonight she did not want to wear a diaper to bed so we put a waterproof sheet on her bed and told her she could come out to go potty if she needed to. Also I am going to go in at midnight to wake her up to go potty and cross my fingers!
To catch up from where we left off....
We had a FABULOUS Christmas!! Georgia's favorite gifts were her tool sets from Gucci & Grandaddy. Santa came Christmas Eve to set up her gifts for her to come running into the next morning, while Mom set up the gifts she all ready received on the other side of the room. Christmas Morning I wake up to the "Handy Manny" theme song being played from the living room! I shot straight up in bed and said, "Doug! She's awake!!!!" The little sneak went straight to the living room to play with her gifts- smart girl though, she stayed away from Santa's side of the room!
Emily and Brock came to visit last weekend and we had a GREAT visit with them. Georgia LOVES Brock and had so much fun with him here. We also went out to see our friend Tamara and 3 week old baby Jack. He is sooo tiny and soooo adorable! We can't wait to see Jack again, and of course Brock!
Some funny things Georgia has said lately:
"I want to paint my face too Mama!" as she tries to take one of my make-up brushes.
"Sleeping Cutie" instead of Sleeping Beauty.
Georgia, Noah & Eli are planning a Valentine's Day party so I am sure I will update again shortly after that!

Wow, Melanie, it sounds like you guys even being sick still accomplished so much this year. Funny, that Georgia only wants to watch Snow White... Carson went through a stage where he only wanted to watch Cars. I guess its just what kids do?!!? Dustin and I are being induced on Feb. 8th! We can't wait. I am on bed rest til the end, so I was super excited when I saw the blog update!! :) I started a blog too its http://simplysophierhea.blogspot.com I have your blog linked to it as one I follow. I love keeping up with everyone. Post pictures from the Val day party! xo Jody
